Earlier this week, the National Hurricane Center in Miami released its initial seasonal forecast for both the Atlantic and East Pacific hurricane season.....and said that both would likely be about average (11 named tropical cyclones in the Atlantic, 15 in the eastern Pacific).
Someone must have forgotten to tell mother nature, because we've now have had two named tropical cyclones in the Eastern Pacific (whose usual season began on May 15th) and two tropical cyclones in the Atlantic (which normally doesn't begin until June 1st.) The first tropical cyclone in the Pacific formed a day early, and the first in the Atlantic formed last weekend. Since then, both ocean basins have seen a second named tropical cyclone form (Bud in the eastern Pacific, and Beryl in the Atlantic this evening).
This is crazy, but they're never recorded two tropical cyclones forming in each basin before June 1st in the same year before. Maybe it was the record warm winter, but this makes you wonder how "normal" or "average" this season is going to be...
If you're in an area prone to hurricanes, better be ready. Beryl is supposed to hit somewhere between Florida and South Carolina on Sunday, and Bud is supposed to hit the Pacific coast of Mexico by Sunday as well.
